Billionaire Whitey Basson says Elon Musk’s Starlink must launch in South Africa

• Billionaire Whitey Basson says Elon Musk's Starlink must launch in South Africa to provide broadband options to rural areas.
• The launch is hindered by South African regulations requiring Starlink to be 30% owned by historically disadvantaged groups, which SpaceX currently does not meet.
• Communications Minister Solly Malatsi's policy directive to consider alternative ownership requirements has been disputed by ICASA, which may delay Starlink's launch in the country.
